Monica v Curbs (Part 2)

With 2 games against bottom teams recently ending in goalless draws, it occurred to me to look at where our points from last season came from. So here is where Curbs accumulated his points last year looking at the teams finishing position.

Points from the top 6 teams: 5. ( 1 win, 2 draws and 9 defeats from 12 games against Chelski, Manure, Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs and Blackburn. ) An average of under half a point a game.

Points from 7th to 12th: 13. (3 wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats from 12 games against Newcastle, Bolton, West Ham, Wigan, Everton and Fulham.) An average of just over 1 point a game.

Charlton finished next in 13th place.

Points from the Bottom 7 teams: 29. ( 9 wins, 5 draws and 2 defeats from 14 games against Middlesbro, Man.City, Villa, Portsmouth, Birmingham, WBA and Sunderland. ) An average of just over 2 points per game.

Total Points: 47 (Green denotes a win, red a double)

This season our points against teams works out at:

Points from the top 6 teams: 3. (1 win from 6 games ) Exactly half-a-point a game

Points from the middle 6 teams: 0 ( 1 defeat from 1 game)

Points from the bottom 7 teams: 5 ( 1 win and 2 draws from 4 games) An average of just over 1 point per game.

What does all this prove? That we are marginally better against the top six with our win over Bolton but as someone previously pointed out to me, Curbs' teams were more ruthless than Monicas' against lower teams, although there doesn't seem to be anyone as bad as Sunderland around at the moment.
